Hello,
While adding a subflow to a brand new flow my toolkit started rebuilding the workspace. After that all flows that started not with an MQInput node but with a subflow containing an MQInput node had become non-deployable.
The flows are not visible in the bar file editor's prepare tab. Bar files already containing these flows throw them away when I try to rebuild.
I know that my workspace has became corrupt. I have restarted the Toolkit and cleaned the workspace several times but it does not help.
The Toolkit version is 6.1.0.8 and it is not a trial version.
Of course it is possible to make flows deployable by adding a dummy MQInput node, but it does not sound a feasible solution in an environment where most flows start with a subflow.
Does anybody know a way to fix this? I tried manually adding xmlns:ComIbmMQInput.msgnode="ComIbmMQInput.msgnode attribute to the Epackage element in the msgflow file - it did not help. I cannot not find any setting like "don't look for MQInput nodes in subflows" in Preferences, maybe it is hidden somewhere in workspace metadata?
I would hate to have to create a new workspace. I am currently working in an insanely set up version control environment where checking out all tens of projects and manually correcting project references would take hours.
Have you made sure that the referenced subflow project is open in the workspace? You cannot build if one of the elements is missing from the workspace. _________________ MQ & Broker admin
Yes I have.
Otherwise I could not add the flow to a bar file by adding a dummy MQInput.
Well, of course I had a copy of my workspace. I copied my changed projects into it and continued working.
I was hoping to be luckier fishing replies if I pretended to be in trouble
Instead of just trying to open another theoretical discussion
Anyway, it would still be interesting to know what happened.
But I guess nobody else has seen this phenomenon?
A year ago I installed trial version of MB Toolkit and after the three months it just stopped adding ANY flows to bar files. I guess that is how the trial period was implemented. It bears resemblance to what happened now.
